Oh my. Based on your intriguing comments after Part 3 I had it in the back of my mind as I read this, to try to figure out who's who and what the emotional ramifications are---when it occurs to me that everybody is everybody! Such emotional complications, which I guess is to be expected when you expand a 3-way emotional tussle into a 5-way. Seems like everybody is cruisin' for a bruisin'. You know me. I hope at least some one or a couple or three get a hopeful ending of some kind. Interesting in your fiction and in life how much damage is done by a failure to be honest with ourselves and others, or even to communicate, which I suppose is its own form of deflected dishonesty.

Oh Merlin you complete... idiot!
Oh this is going to hurt so bad when it all goes pear shaped! I can tell you're building up for a massive fall. What concerns me is i know you're penchant for absolute suffering so the more i read this the more i get the impression this isn't going to be a happy ending! I want it to be but you never seem to write them... that's a tad harsh perhaps... you rarely write them! But i can never stop reading anyway!!!

We need a sisterhood of evil y'know!

hmmm, not sure whether you'll be happy with the ending or will wish to kill me.

I really am a miserable bitch to my muses. No wonder they don't give me much anymore.
